I hope this hasn't been done before! There's no real reason I'm doing this other than the fact that I love the original series and that making a tier list is a good use of time while I look for work (—''—).

[Key]

S: My personal favorites and go-to recommendations.

A: Amazing episodes that really embody what The Twilight Zone is all about (in my opinion).

B: Episodes that are good, but not particularly interesting to me. They're the most susceptible to being put on as 'background noise'.

C: Episodes that are unmemorable to me but not necessarily 'bad'. I wouldn't watch them willingly, but they make good reruns.

D: Episodes that are 'bad', in the sense that they're boring or otherwise unenjoyable. I'd probably change the channel if I saw them on tv.
